Pompeian graffitti
#7
Yes, the gladiators are as exact as I could make them from the example from Pompeii, which I think are from a tunnel entrance.<br>
<br>
I found all the graffitti in other Pompeian sources, can't recall which ones, but they are literal. I need to add more, so if you have a favorite let me know. I'd like to add an election notice for a Metullus, maybe for aedile. I wonder if they ever made it down to Pompeii or had a villa in Baiae?<br>
<br>
My new quote is actually an older Jimmy Buffett song translated: "My head hurts, my feet stink, and I don't love Jesus". This is from Henry Beard's new "X-TREME LATIN" book.<br>
<br>
As to administrix, that's Jenny's gift: she started the RCT and then transferred it to me. <p>Legio XX<br>
